Create a Google Cloud Storage Bucket

Demonstrates how to create a Google Cloud Storage bucket. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
# scope "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform"

# In this example, Get Google Cloud Storage OAuth2 Access Token, 
# the service account access token was saved to a text file.  This example fetches the access token from the file..
sbToken = Chilkat::CkStringBuilder.new()
sbToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/googleCloudStorageAccessToken.txt","utf-8")

# ---- Step 1
# Create a JSON that contains the following information, replacing [VALUES_IN_BRACKETS] with the appropriate values:

# {
#   "name": "[BUCKET_NAME]",
#   "location": "[BUCKET_LOCATION]",
#   "storageClass": "[STORAGE_CLASS]"
# }

json = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
json.UpdateString("name","chilkat-ocean")
json.UpdateString("location","us")
json.UpdateString("storageClass","multi_regional")

# ---- Step 2
# Send a POST equivalent to this curl command

# curl -X POST --data-binary @[JSON_FILE_NAME].json \
#      -H "Authorization: Bearer [OAUTH2_TOKEN]" \
#      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
#      "https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b?project=[PROJECT_ID]"

http = Chilkat::CkHttp.new()
http.put_AuthToken(sbToken.getAsString())

http.SetUrlVar("project_id","chilkat-176611")
url = "https://www.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b?project={$project_id}"
resp = Chilkat::CkHttpResponse.new()
success = http.HttpJson("POST",url,json,"application/json",resp)
if (success == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

responseCode = resp.get_StatusCode()
if (responseCode == 401)
    print resp.bodyStr() + "\n";
    print "If invalid credentials, then it is likely the access token expired." + "\n";
    print "Your app should automatically fetch a new access token and re-try." + "\n";
    exit
end

print "Response code: " + responseCode.to_s() + "\n";
print "Response body" + "\n";
print resp.bodyStr() + "\n";

# A successful response looks like this:
# Response code: 200
# Response body
# {

# Parse the JSON response:

jsonResp.Load(resp.bodyStr())

print "name: " + jsonResp.stringOf("name") + "\n";
print "timeCreated: " + jsonResp.stringOf("timeCreated") + "\n";

# Parse the date/time created.
